 My strategy is when I confront writer's block is one as I like I said I do sit down I schedule some time And I can be pretty gentle with myself if one day it just feels like everything that's coming out feels silly The other thing that I think is really helpful with writer's block I learned from my daughter Actually is to just go ahead and write and realize that all writing is rewriting you know if you can Set it aside while you're working on another section of the paper where you know Where you have a clear outline and you know you can write that part fairly easily just You know sometimes set that paragraph or portion aside Write the piece that you know you can write well and sometimes That gives you that sense of accomplishment that okay now I can go back to the other a lot of Authors will tell you that they just set aside a certain amount of time and they block it and they protect it And I think that's wise It's hard for me because I if I don't really want to write I it's really easy for me to get distracted those my toilets have never been so clean as when I have writer's block don't Let yourself get so caught up in making sure that you have the perfect phrasing every time You certainly just put it out there and then Edit it down. I think that for me has been really helpful to get kind of past that idea that it has to be perfect the first time I'm able to Step away from being their tense in the moment. I can step back get the broader view and start to Maybe synthesize some of the ideas in my head a little better Even if it's a couple of sentences or starting jotting down ideas that you have I'm trying to get some form to the manuscript But it's committing time and setting aside time and don't let other things compete with that priority
